On April 25, 2023, the man known as the King of Calypso passed away at the age of 96. Over the years, Harry Belafonte became famous as a singer and actor. He was also a civil rights activist in the United States and a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador.

His name is mentioned in most of Nana's biographical texts. With good reason since he invited her to accompany him on his North American tours between 1964 and 1966. Thanks to him, Nana understood the importance of singing in front of an audience and how discipline is necessary to perform well day after day. Thank you Mr. Belafonte for having introduced her to us.
